You must start on level 1 of Marathon and complete level 15 without using the Hold Queue. The Hold Queue is when you hit either RT or LT to store or swap a tetrimino. So basically you have no choice but to play the tetriminos in the order they come.

One problem is that if you are used to using the Hold Queue, you will be tempted to hit RT or LT on accident out of habit. If you go under Help & Options then Controls, there is an option to disable Hold Queue...BUT you need to have 9 achievements in the game to unlock this feature.
